Check out this video from Exponential 2011: On the Verge of Neil Cole encouraging leaders to help their people “see” the mission of Jesus.
Imagination is the key for the church and it’s people to see the mission as Jesus sees it. The goal in this move is for each individual and church to “see it.†Once a follower or church is able to “see it†then a missional movement is possible.
